Pressed Po-Boy

Being from the Gulf Coast, I have a fondess for the pressed Po-Boys available all in that area. I cannot locate an establishment here that has the pressed type Po-Boys. Any suggestions.

Sacrilege. Good French bread wouldn't press well. But that's just me but I also think King Cakes should only be sold from January 6th to Mardi Gras

Don't worry. The next "cutting edge" will be pressed King Cake.

Sadly you may be correct

A pressed po-boy sounds wonderful. If you try any of these places, please report back.

They will press your poboy if you request it.

Their muffaletta is essentially a pressed poboy and it's damn tasty.

IIRC, Liuzza's (the one on Bienville) frenchuletta is pressed....though it's been a while, so I could be misremembering.

Cafe Arabesque on La Salle downtown presses most sandwiches. I wouldn't call them po-boys, but...

You could try Schnell's. I think it's on 4th Street in Harvey. They have a pretty good grilled roast beef - it's a roast beef po'boy that's buttered on the outside and pressed sort of like on a waffle iron. Just be prepared, the service is rather lacking in both speed and courtesy.

Go back to the Gulf Coast, he wisecracked. Seriously, we don't eat that stuff 'round here. But also seriously, try the restaurants that serve cuban food and order a cuban sandwich. Probably your best bet.

Have to agree.

The Cuban bread is softer and heavier.

Lends itself to a press grill.

Is the Cuban sandwich the one with pork?

Yep,and some good ham and swiss cheese,mustard and dills.
